The Mysql package contains 4 unit test files (one for each class). These files are located in the ‘unitTests’ directory of the download package. Each file name begins with the class it tests and ends with ‘_test.php’. There is also a fifth file named ‘run_all.php’ this will run all unit tests contained in the four *_test.php files. The unit tests can be run separately (by loading the appropriate file in a browser, or through the command line) or you may run a complete test of the entire package by loading the ‘run_all.php’ file.
Configuration
Before running any of the unit tests you will need to make changes in two files: ‘simpletest_config.php’ and ‘mysql_config.php’.
simpletest_config.php – This file (surprise!) contains the configuration settings for SimpleTest. You will only need to change line 29 to the path where SimpleTest is located on your machine.
mysql_config.php – This file contains the MySQL configuration settings. You will need to edit the configuration settings for your MySQL installation. Most notably you will need to edit: USERNAME, PASSWORD, HOST, and *DB_NAME*
!!! IMPORTANT DO NOT USE AN EXISTING DATABASE IT WILL AUTOMATICALLY BE DELETED AT THE END OF THE TEST !!!
DB_NAME – When a unit test is run the script creates a new database on the server and creates a table with some dummy data to run tests against. This database is automatically deleted at the beginning and end of the test.
!!! IMPORTANT DO NOT USE AN EXISTING DATABASE IT WILL AUTOMATICALLY BE DELETED AT THE END OF THE TEST !!!
